SubjectRe: [PATCH V2 2/5] can: flexcan: add CAN FD mode support
Date
Hello Joakim,

I successfully validated your CAN FD support on an S32V234 based board.
Here are some points which are not very clear to me:

Joakim Zhang <qiangqing.zhang@nxp.com> writes:

According to the S32V234 reference manual (not sure if this applies to
i.MX8QM as well), CAN_CTRL1[SMP] cannot be asserted when CAN FD is
enabled. Is it safe to configure the interface with both "fd on" and
"triple-sampling on"? If not, flexcan_open should return an error when
both CAN_CTRLMODE_FD and CAN_CTRLMODE_3_SAMPLES are set in ctrlmode.

Joakim Zhang <qiangqing.zhang@nxp.com> writes:

Shouldn't is_canfd be assigned false in the "else" branch? Otherwise,
is_canfd will stay true after the following sequence:

root@s32v234evb:~# ip link set can0 type can bitrate 500000 dbitrate
2000000 fd on
root@s32v234evb:~# ip link set can0 up
root@s32v234evb:~# ip link set can0 down
root@s32v234evb:~# ip link set can0 type can bitrate 500000 fd off
root@s32v234evb:~# ip link set can0 up

Moreover, I wonder if we even need is_canfd, because frames should be
fed to the kernel as classic or FD based only on the EDL bit in the C/S
word of the Rx MB, to keep their original format. That is, you may
either read EDL from within a new callback (but I think that
mailbox_read should remain the only one which both locks and unlocks the
mailboxes) or let mailbox_read call alloc_can(fd)_skb itself.

Regards,
Stefan
